HONOLULU (AP) _ Duane ``Dog'' Chapman is waiting to hear whether a Mexican federal court will set him free or order his pending extradition and criminal case to proceed.
The 53-year-old reality T-V star is charged under Mexican law with ``deprivation of liberty.'' It stems from his 2003 capture of fugitive convicted rapist Andrew Luster, the Max Factor heir, in Puerto Vallarta.
Chapman says he's dying inside.
His attorney, William Boller, will present arguments starting Monday. Chapman won't attend the closed hearing.
Boller says the hearing is critical, because it could resolve the matter.
Chapman was arrested September 14th and is free on 300-thousand dollars bail.
